​GET TO KNOW ME

I’m Coralie. A writer based in Louisville, KY.

By day, I work as a mental health therapist who specializes in sex, relationships and more! I also was a previously a sex and relationship columnist for Today's Woman.  By night (aka my free time), I write poetry, and seek to live a rich and embodied life (dance, volleyball, nature, laughter, and spending time with loved ones and puppies) in order to fill my cup as I help pour into and serve others. 

I began sharing my poetry on a professional platform in 2021, with my first poetry collection, The Place That Keeps Love Alive, published in October 2022. I write for me, and I also write for the readers; the writers; the dreamers; the fighters; and to all the ones who took chances like it was the only choice there was.

You can find me on Instagram at @coralieshawnpoetry for the latest on poetry, life, love, and healing. 

I adore therapy, but do not have a therapy Instagram at this time : ) I give my heart to my clients in-session and don't have bandwidth to do TikTok therapy or create additional content in my spare time. However, I do have therapy blog posts I have written available through my affiliated company, Northstar Counseling Center, that are free to anyone, with a wealth of content also written by our amazing therapy team!
